This month's sessions were recorded at The Phoenix Theatre in Ross-on-Wye, which used to be the town's fire station.

The team behind the productions formed nearly 100 years ago at the Corn Exchange, which burned down in 1939.

They then moved to The Roxy Theatre, which closed, and in 1982 moved to their present location at the top of the town.

They extended the facility 20 years later and now host events almost every weekend.
